This might not be a bad gift for a guy to give to a girl, if you know her size. But as a female, I like to wait for those 2x's a year clearances they have a places like VS, Gap, Express, etc. so I can see and touch my underwear before I buy it. You can get panties for $1.98 or so and higher, but at least I know what I am getting. I have had some bad experiences with online ordering underwear. When you have fabric that intimately close to you, it better be some nice fabric, especially a thong!

There really is a joke in here but I will restrain my inner 12 year old and not say anything.

Not sure why you gave red, when it's actually a good deal...

It is a matter of taste I guess, no offense. I appreciate you posting good deals when you find them. Butt (pun intended) for instance, right now if you posted that Gap had underwear on sale for $2.99 (which they do) and you can guy a Groupon for $25 for $50 worth of stuff, you can get all the stuff you buy at gap for half price...making each pair of underwear $1.50 instead, I personally would prefer that deal. Bamboo material is more trendy right now certain kinds of people, but I do not like the feel of it between my cheeks. For people who have never felt this material before, my TCing is just a warning to make sure you know what you are buying before you shell out any amt of money. I have made this mistake before with thongs, and I hate wasting money.

Voice of experience for any guys considering this... The above is more much dangerous territory than you might innocently imagine in passing. When in doubt re size when buying women's underwear, always buy SMALLER. She can take it back. You on the other hand will never be able to take back all of the twisted implications that arise in the female mind from you buying 2X too big. Under no circumstances mention anything along the lines of "you'll grow into them."

Oh no, no offense taken. I just thought that giving red meant that the deal was crap, there were lower prices elsewhere, etc.

Fair enough you don't like bamboo underwear, but I'm one of those "certain kinds of people" who appreciate that it's environmentally friendly.

I, for one, never mind a good panty deal in any day but I'm buying it for myself. For guys buying for their girl, though, I'd have to warn you to tread lightly on these things (*cough* make sure you REALLY know her size, kinda like bras *cough*) since I've seen the end results.

Buy too large, you'll get the "what??? you think I have a big butt???".

Buy too small, you'll get the "what??? you think I have a big butt???".

Also, if you do buy them for your girl, give them to her right away. If she finds them in your glove compartment, she probably won't believe you when you say "but I was saving them for your birthday"

Unfortunately most of it is not really any more environmentally friendly/unfriendly than most other fabrics.

Snagged from: said: [L=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bamboo#Textiles]There]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bamboo#Textiles]There[/L] are two methods by which bamboo may be processed into fiber for fabric, both developed in China.

The first is a mechanical process similar to that used to process flax or hemp; the stalks are crushed and natural enzymes break them down further, allowing fibers to be combed out.[25]

The other follows the process by which rayon is made where the fibers are broken down with chemicals and extruded through mechanical spinnerets; the chemicals include lye, carbon disulfide and strong acids.[21]

Retailers have sold both end products as "bamboo fabric" to cash in on bamboo's current eco-friendly cachet, however the Canadian Competition Bureau[26] and the US Federal Trade Commission[27], as of mid-2009, are cracking down on the practice of labeling bamboo rayon as natural bamboo fabric. Under the guidelines of both agencies these products must be labeled as rayon with the optional qualifier "from bamboo". Bamboo fabric is known for its softness and boasts strong absorbency and anti-microbial properties, though the chemical process in bamboo rayon destroys any anti-microbial quality.[27]

May be a good deal for some. My conspiracy theory said are they really worth $70? Recycled bamboo and eco-friendly? Aren't those the 2010 new phrases for "used", "lowest grade"? The Chinese manufacturer really know how to sell to the eco-friendly and "green" Americans.

What will you say if your wife/GF said, "I saw the same ad online or at FW and you didn't pay that much for it."?

I think the best analogy I've seen so far would be like putting a huge label on Oreo Cookies claiming they were made from Whole Wheat.

FYI -- These look like they run big (much bigger than VS). The sizing says this:

A 5'11" wearing a S is not a good sign for us normal sized women. Her hips are 35" which is probably about a size 4 or 6. So I guess in retrospect, these could be good to buy for your girlfriend/wife because she'll feel thinner when a size that she normally wears is too big on her.

I don't think anyone takes returns on underwear, or at least they're not supposed to. I'm just wondering how thick the gold plating is on a pair of $25 panties.
